Studies on the Chemiluminescent Detection of Active Oxygen Species: 9-Acridone-2-siilfonic Acid, a Specific Probe for Superoxide

抄録

9-Acridone-2-suIfonic acid was shown to react specifically with superoxide to give chemiluminescent light emission in an aqueous media as well as in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Thus, it supplements the non-specificity of Cypridina luciferin analogues to singlet molecular oxygen and the superoxide anion radical.
